China is the biggest buyer of Iranian oil and the two countries have grown closer in recent years, with Iran becoming an important supporter of China\'s Belt and Road Initiative.
But as it responds to the end US sanctions waivers on Iranian oil, China needs to be careful not to jeopardise delicate trade talks with the United States.
Despite publicly opposing the unilateral US sanctions, China may give up its Iranian oil imports to appease Washington.

OPEC Secretary-General Mohammed Barkindo visited Tehran for an oil and gas expo just hours before sanctions waivers the US granted to Iran\'s biggest oil customers were set to expire.
The OPEC chief visit came as China, Turkey and Iraq said that they cannot abide by the unilateral US sanctions and would continue doing business with Iran and one Russian executive claimed that they have been encouraged to do business with Iranian companies.
However, the Iranian economy is already struggling and prices are soaring; the expiration of the sanctions waivers mean the situation has become even more precarious.

A pair of Asiatic lions returned to Iran after eighty years on Thursday, in a ceremony held at Tehran Zoological Garden.
The institution, also known as Eram zoo, took seven years to bring back the lions after submitting a request to the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA).
\"We also tried for 7 years and we have finally been able to achieve necessary standards and standards that are even higher than [the] Europeans. So two Persian lions were allocated to Tehran\'s Eram zoo.
The 6-year-old male lion from Bristol zoo [whose] name is Hirman and another 4-year-old female lion from Dublin zoo in Ireland, and her name is Ilda\", explained Director Iman Memarian.
Visitors paid half-price tickets to see the lions on Thursday, and were pleased to witness the return of the species, which has been extinct in Iran for almost eighty years.
\"I think we did not just take back one species today, but we took back a symbol and a generation of our civilization\", said Elmia Rabani Azad.
Asiatic lions once were present in the Middle East and India, but today only a small number of them survive in the wild.
